Masters…

“Life is difficult.” M. Scott Peck

“Life is struggle.” Karl Marx

“Life is suffering.” Buddha

“Blessed are you when others revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account.” Jesus

I guess we can pretty much agree – life is hard.

You can do what is easy now, and life will eventually get hard. You can do what is hard now, and life will get easier. Pain is inevitable. Misery is a choice. You choose. Your choices have consequences. CES

Slow down and reflect. What choices did you make today? Did you choose to do the hard thing in front of you or push it off on another? Did you choose to do the hard thing with your problem? Did you choose to do the hard thing with your wife? Did you choose to do the hard thing with your leadership? Did you choose to do the hard thing with your life?

You and I are only able to do what we’ve learned to do. We learn to do hard things by doing them. We all do them poorly when we begin. Amateurs are inconsistent. Pro’s are consistent and competent. Masters never stop learning. Masters understand good is the enemy of great. Thanks, Jim Collins.

Keep working, master in the making. Keep working. Damn.

Live hard. Love ❤️ harder…
